In combination with the ELITe InGenius™, the ELITech Group’s fully automated sample-to-result system, the assay is intended to detect 150 variants belonging to the 5 main families of Carbapenem-Resistant genes: KPC, NDM, VIM, IMP, and OXA-48 like and differentiate the main...

Among the most clinically significant multidrug-resistant bacteria are carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae. Because these bacteria usually remain susceptible to polymyxins, interest in this old class of antibiotics has been recently renewed. However, the increasing use of colistin explains why Enterobacterial strains resistant to colistin are increasingly reported worldwide.
Currently available polymyxins susceptibility methods are fastidious, time-consuming (24 hours) and some methods are not reliable....
